Each episode, one of the boys presents an overlooked film they love, and tries to convince the other of its misunderstood genius. The two debate its merits and discuss how it was made and whether it belongs in the pantheon of cinematic greats. You Should Watch This with Ed and Simon began as a series of drunken conversations between two film-loving friends who were constantly recommending forgotten and unloved movies to each other. With the help of sound, editing and music maestro David, a p ...

Ed Hime absolutely adores The Other Guys (2010). And who can blame him. Mark Wahlberg and Will Ferrell give grandstanding comedic performances as the mismatched cops on the hunt for a white-collar criminal which serves as the jumping off point for director Adam McKay's later political movies (The Big Short (2015) and Vice (2018)). An ensemble cast …

A real gem of an Italian movie is on offer in this instalment of You Should Watch This. Simon pitches Elio Petri's Investigation of a Citizen Above Suspicion - an enthralling political satire which isn't so much a whodunit as a "whydunit". The police inspector (Gian Maria Volonté) kills his lover in the opening scene and then spends the rest of the…

Tim Burton's first feature as director sees the eponymous Pee-wee Herman on a road trip to recover his beloved lost bike in one of the strangest "kids" movies ever made. For Simon the film has so many associations with his childhood, from Large Marge to behind the wheel to Amazing Larry's mohican, but will the slick script, inventive stop-motion an…

How about a heartfelt coming of age story, a critique of the American class system and a rousing sports drama all rolled into one?

Love Bill Murray? What if I told you that out of the mist of 1970s improv comedy came a leading man equally as funny but definitely more problematic that Bill?

Budd Boetticher's 1959 Western "Ride Lonesome" is up for discussion this week, and the Randolph Scott vehicle is an absolute gem of a movie.

But will Ed appreciate the charm that the f…

Feeling like something scary? How about an '70s Italian horror/slasher movie with an amazing prog soundtrack (Goblin), creepy puppets, inventive murder scenes and a whodunit plot that will keep you guessing until the end?
